PURPOSE1
This survey provides information about:
- The cost of housing for the American public.
- The availability of housing for different segments of the American public, such as the elderly,
low income, and different minority groups.
- Trends in housing market. For example:
+ What type of housing (single family homes, condominiums, townhouses,
manufactured/mobile homes, etc.) are people buying?
+ What type of fuels and appliances are being used?
+ Is the quality of housing in this country improving or getting worse for most people?
+ Is the cost of owning and maintaining a home changing?
+ Is the cost of renting changing?
+ Are people adding to their living space?
+ What proportion of our population lives in overcrowded housing?
+ Are neighborhoods getting better or worse?
- How close are we to our national goal of providing quality housing for each American?
- To provide data for the President to present an annual report to Congress.

1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE2
Some uses for the information are the following:
- To evaluate the effectiveness of existing housing programs.
- To plan new programs.
- To determine the amount of money required to solve different types of housing problems.
- To determine at what income level families of various sizes qualify for low-income housing
assistance programs.
- To determine how much support low-or middle-income families should receive in the form of
rent subsidies or mortgage assistance programs.
- To determine if existing mortgage programs are adequate.
- To provide data for the President to present an annual report to Congress.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE3
How he/she was selected:
- We selected an address, not you or your family.
- If you were to move, this address would remain in the survey, not your new one.

Page 267 of 269

Why we can't select someone else:
- Each address is scientifically selected to represent thousands of other housing units.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE4
- Yes, participation is voluntary.
- To produce valid and reliable results, everyone should participate.
- Decisions will be made with or without your input. By participating, your voice will be heard in
Washington.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE5
- Any information you provide is confidential by law (Title 13, section 9a of the U.S. Code).
- Individual people or homes cannot be identified in publications.
- Interviewers have taken an oath not to reveal the information. If they break this oath, they can
be fined or imprisoned.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE6
- Congress requires the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to collect this
information under the Housing and Urban-Rural Recovery Act of 1983 (Title 12 of the United
States Code (U.S.C.)). HUD has asked the Census Bureau to conduct the survey. The Census
Bureau has the authority to collect and protect this information under Title 13 of the U.S.C.,
Section 8. All information that individuals give to the Census Bureau is held in the strictest
confidence by law (Title 13, U.S.C., Section 9).
- Although there are no penalties for not answering, each missing answer makes the national
figures on housing less accurate. Your answers may be combined with information that you give
to other agencies to enhance the statistical use of these data, but all data will be kept strictly
confidential.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE7
- Because of the survey, Federal funds are allocated more efficiently. The survey actually saves
more money than it costs.
Page 268 of 269

- Government programs, such as (Select any: mortgage assistance, loans, rent assistance,
low-cost housing) exist or may exist in the future that you, or someone you know, might
participate in.
- The survey results are used to evaluate our progress toward providing each American with
decent housing.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE8
- It actually saves more money than it costs, because the information is used to allocate housing
funds more efficiently.
- To keep costs low, we only interview a sample of households, that's why your participation is so
important.
1. Enter 1 to continue

PURPOSE9
- We're best known for the census, but we conduct surveys all the time. This housing survey is
one of them.
- We have over 3,000 interviewers who work all across the country.
